Get Bone Warden's Splitter
Overview

Bone Warden's Splitter is an epic-quality one-handed axe hailing from Wrath of the Lich King. The model is built entirely around the Scourge's bone theme: a broad blade resembles a curved rib, while fragments of skulls and vertebrae are fastened to the haft, as if the weapon were assembled from remains. Its pale-grey palette with cold bluish glints makes it instantly recognizable as an Icecrown Citadel item.
The axe is a great fit for classes that wield a one-handed weapon in melee. Its item level and stats are irrelevant nowadays — the axe has long been valued purely for its looks. It is one of the most thematic "bone" appearances for builds in the spirit of the undead, death knights, and dark warriors.
Source
The axe drops from Lord Marrowgar — the first boss of the Icecrown Citadel raid in Icecrown (Northrend).
- Lord Marrowgar stands at the very start of the raid, by the entrance to the first hall, so you don't have to clear a long path to reach him.
- The appearance has a drop chance of about 1.6%, so guaranteeing it may take several weekly runs.
- The item is bind-on-pickup and cannot be sold or traded — the appearance can only be obtained personally.
Icecrown Citadel is Wrath of the Lich King content, long outdated in difficulty. At the current level the raid is cleared solo with ease, and Lord Marrowgar, as the first boss, is killed in mere seconds on any class. His loot resets once a week, so you can farm the axe with a single character once per reset, or with several characters in parallel.
Who it suits visually
- Ideal for death knight looks and any concepts tied to the Scourge and the undead, thanks to its bone model.
- It harmonizes with plate sets in the pale-grey and bluish palette typical of Icecrown Citadel loot.
- It looks great paired with dark armor featuring spikes and skulls, reinforcing the "necrotic" image.
- It contrasts with light or golden armor, creating a grim accent on the weapon.
Tips
It's best to farm the appearance on a class with high damage and good mobility — a paladin, death knight, or warrior clears the first hall especially fast.
Lord Marrowgar stands right by the entrance, so a run for the axe takes literally a couple of minutes.
During a single weekly reset you can kill the boss in raid mode once per character — set up several characters to increase your number of attempts per week.
Icecrown Citadel drops many other sought-after appearances and offers raid-related achievements, so a run for the axe is convenient to combine with general farming.
If the appearance doesn't drop for weeks, don't despair — with a chance of about 1.6%, the result depends entirely on the number of attempts, and there's no cap on the maximum number of characters.
The easiest way into the raid is through Dalaran or directly by teleporting to Icecrown, then flying to the citadel entrance.

Started playing back in Pandaria, when the pandaren were still a novelty. Got stuck on Monk because it's the only class where you don't get dizzy after a dash. Tries to manage both tanking and kicking enemies in the face.
